Listen to the Property Investor Tales Podcast Now
Welcome to Property Investor Tales, Stories From The Front Yard, where we speak with property investors from around Australia about their investing journey. My name is Tabitha Bright and I’m Head of Coaching here at Positive Real Estate, where we help people build long-term wealth through property.
In this episode of Property Investor Tales, I sit down with Rebecca Speirs, who shares how resilience, discipline, and a willingness to embrace new challenges have helped her build a growing property portfolio across Australia and New Zealand.
After relocating from New Zealand, building a successful contracting career, and navigating an unfamiliar property market, Rebecca took a strategic approach to investing. Through continuous education, careful planning, and the confidence to act when opportunities arose, she acquired three properties in just two years while continuing to grow her income and expand her skill set.
This episode is packed with valuable insights on developing the right mindset for investing, preparing for opportunities before they arise, and why building assets—not waiting for the perfect time—is the key to creating long-term financial freedom.
